Day 22: NaNoWriMo 2012

After all the guests left, I got to work...

The plan was that this post would declare the conclusion of the first draft. Because I did in fact write out all the scenes as I had planned. And that should be a reason to celebrate, right?

But once I was done and typed the symbol which indicates the end...

###

...  I realized that I was not done after all... I hate that... okay maybe I don't hate it. But now I have to deal with this new idea. Do I write it now or do I make a note of it in my journal then take care of it when I revise the manuscript.

I like completion. I like closure. But in this case, the idea came to me just as I was typing ###... that must mean something.

As of last night, here are my statistics:

Day 22's total: 1,075
Overall: 51,448 

What to do? I may need to eat more turkey and ham leftovers before I make a decisions...
